In Texas, several grass species are popular for lawns, landscaping, and pasture purposes. The suitability of grass species may vary depending on factors such as region, climate, soil type, and intended use. Here are some popular grass seeds used in Texas:

- Common Bermuda (Cynodon dactylon): Common Bermuda grass is a warm-season grass widely used in Texas and other southern regions. It is known for its excellent heat and drought tolerance, making it suitable for areas with high temperatures and limited water availability. Common Bermuda forms a dense turf with fine to medium-textured leaves and can withstand heavy foot traffic. It is often used for lawns, parks, sports fields, and pastures.

This variety is often chosen for lawns, golf courses, and athletic fields where a fine-textured, visually appealing turf is desired.
- Sahara Bermuda (Cynodon dactylon ‘Sahara’): Sahara Bermuda is a warm-season grass that has gained popularity in Texas due to its exceptional drought tolerance. It has an extensive root system, allowing it to access water deep in the soil profile, making it suitable for areas with limited irrigation. Sahara Bermuda has a medium to coarse texture and exhibits good wear tolerance. It is commonly used in residential and commercial landscapes, parks, and golf course roughs.

It is commonly found in pastures, hayfields, and other agricultural settings in Texas.
